my income AS AN ARTIST + cozy draw with me sketchbook session

For YEARS money has been a pretty taboo topic in the art community. But over the past few months, many artists have begun sharing the AMAZING money stats from their art businesses, breaking the myth of the “Starving Artist”. But what do you do when your stats are a little…. Less than that? What do you do when you feel like giving up on your art career? In today’s sketchbook session, we’re chatting about what I make each month as an artist, the different types of growth in your art business, and the importance of having a solid artistic community. So grab some tea, and draw with me!
